Abstract
A wound simulation unit is a physical device designed to help simulate a wound on an object (e.g., a human being or human surrogate such as a medical manikin) for instructing a trainee to learn or practice wound-related treatment skills. For the trainee, the simulation looks like a real wound when viewed using an Augmented Reality (AR) system. Responsive to a change in the anatomic state of the object (e.g., bending a knee or raising of an arm) not only the spatial location and orientation of the wound stays locked on the object in the AR system, but the characteristics of the wound change based on the physiologic logic of changing said anatomical state (e.g., greater or less blood flow, opening or closing of the wound).
